Introduction

The Energy Monitor helps you understand how much power 

your appliances use. Once you understand this you can 

take steps to reduce your energy consumption – after all, it’s 

difficult to manage what you can’t measure!

The  Energy Monitor also includes surge protection to ensure 

your appliance is protected against surges and voltage spikes 

whilst being measured
